Where are the Moose?
Did you know that moose disappear into the deep forests around Piney Lake in the winter? The thick tree canopies reduce the snow height, and their long legs allow them to ease their winter movements…but it’s still hard. Since moose do not hibernate, they have to forage for food and eat mainly woody vegetation like leaves, twigs, and layers under the bark, called cambium.
ACCESSING PRR IN THE WINTER
The ranch is officially closed for the season. The US Forest Service has jurisdiction over 700 and 701 roads (USFS 700 & 701) – the road to the ranch. They determine road openings and closings to ensure safe conditions for travelers. We suggest calling the USFS at (970) 827.5715 for updates on the road and its condition.
